We will keep asking Andrea to help us with our kitties until the end of time. She has great communication with us and she delivers oral meds to our stubborn cat with no complaints. Our cats are always cared for and loved when Andrea visits. Highly recommend booking with Andrea!

Brianna is just wonderful. She took great care of my two kitties. She is kind, patient and very communicative. I have a very shy kitty and she warmed up to Brianna quickly. I had peace of mind while I was away and completely trust her in my home. Thank you Brianna for taking such good care of my kitties!

Kate was very professional and did a fantastic job with our anxious dog. She showed up right on time for multiple visits and took our dog on a nice walk. She made sure he was appropriately fed and taken care of. We'll be asking her to watch our dog again!

About: I have take care of dogs and cats since I can remember. I’ve always had family pets that I looked after. Recently I started to pet sit professionally and have looked after pets with all manners of personalities and needs. I am currently working full time with a hybrid schedule. Monday through Wednesday in the office and Thursday through Friday remote. I am free every weekend and anytime after 5pm. Because each pet parent is unique and has their own ways to raise and care for their pets I strictly adhere to their rules and guidelines. That includes areas they have their pets walk and house rules for those that request house sitting.

About: I have professional dog care experience from working at Hounds Town, where I managed dogs of all sizes, temperaments, and energy levels in safe group and individual settings. I’m also Dog Management Level 2 certified, with training in dog behavior, handling, and safety. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I’m used to planning my schedule around dogs’ needs like walks, feeding, playtime, and consistent attention from my experience at Hounds Town. I also have a rescue dog of my own who requires extra patience and understanding, so I’m very comfortable caring for shy, anxious, or nervous dogs who may require more time to become comfortable. Providing calm, attentive, and reliable care is something I truly enjoy and prioritize every day. For drop-in visits, I follow your pet’s usual routine as closely as possible, including feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, and quality time with play or affection based on their personality. I want them to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. During walks, I prioritize safety with secure leash handling and awareness of our surroundings. I adjust each walk to your dog’s pace and energy level. Whether that’s an active walk or a relaxed stroll with time to sniff. I also send updates and photos so you can feel confident your pet is happy and in good hands.

My cats can be temperamental and all have little things they need for their care and Lana fit the bill to accomplish those things. She sent us so many photos of our babies and kept us up to date on their daily happenings. She is also the only person outside of my family that has cared for my dog. I was nervous about leaving him behind but she took the utmost care of him and he was doing great when we got back.

I’m so happy to have met Daniela! She is so kind and truly LOVES animals. I don’t know how she did it but she was able to get my old kitty out from under the bed, taking pets, eating treats and purring 🤩. We felt so good knowing our cats were in her hands while we were away.

About: I have raised two dogs (one large bread and one small bread) both from puppy to 16 & 17yrs old. I have had three cats (one still residing with me). Currently I dog sit two fur babies since 2020. In a week I am losing one of my buddies due to his parents relocating. I am already missing him and am hoping to make some new walking and cuddling partners. I work part time on weekends but can sit with advanced notice. Monday til Wednesday I am available for anytime on shorter notice. When I have your furry sweetheart I do not leave them by themselves at all,so I like to schedule when there is nothing to conflict with the time I have them. When in my house they have no restrictions from me, only what the parent wants. I have an outside bathroom area on leash for quick bathroom trips. I like to go for at least one or two long walks per day, weather permitting and your dogs abilities. I live in a walkable neighborhood and close to parks. When at your house I will follow whatever routine your partner is used to.

Jenna was very responsive when setting up her first meeting with Tilly. She informed us precisely when she arrived at the house and departed. She also sent pictures and updates, which were greatly appreciated and comforting when we left our puppy alone for the first time. We look forward to using her again! Tilly says “thank you” too!
